Lara's List

Hi, my name is Lara, and I have a book buying problem. About half of these are books that I've been keeping on a separate shelf and haven't read yet. I'm going to give myself a goal of 100% completion in five years. It's optimistic I know, but in trying to clear off my shelves I've already read more books this year than I did all of last year. I think I can do it.
